Better? How, in what way?

For backend:
Valentino's Snake Oil
Legends Factory Finish
Storm's Xtra Shine
Lane#1/Bean's Secret Sauce (don't use too fine a base grit level)

I know your trying to get length and back end reaction and everything but not alot of polishes do a whole lot different than the other polishes from my view. I've found great success with Valentino's Snake Oil and when applied after the Resurrection... PERFECT!

depending on how much hand you have I like to use track clean and dull,and then apply a helping of 3m finesse.. finesse definitely gets the balls down the lane and if you have some paw it jumps very nicely..

Snake oil gives more backend reaction, just went from Factory Finish on a Striking Motion to Snake Oil polish the ball gained about 3 solid boards of hook and was consistent shot after shot.

Both were done with a fresh 1k abralon pad on a ball spinner, the result was nice mirror like finish that still reads well on a fresh medium oil shot.
